Bird Walk

Novice and experienced birdwatchers are invited to join expert bird walk leaders and spotters, including Rosann Kolvacik, owner of Wild Birds Unlimited of Grosse Pointe Woods, as they explore the grounds.
Bird spotters at Ford House frequently see dozens of species on their walks, and every walk is different!

Many species of birds call the estate home, plus many others stop by our 86 acres of woods, gardens and lakefront while on their way to and from warmer climates.

Don't forget to wear multiple layers, dress for the weather, bring binoculars if you have them (some will be available for checkout at Ford House) and wear waterproof shoes as you'll be trekking all over the Ford House grounds.

Advance registration is required and is online only. Space is limited. No refunds or exchanges.

Please include all contact information - including your phone number - while registering so that we may let you know of any changes in case of inclement weather.

The Edsel & Eleanor Ford House experience is an authentic witness to the past that inspires, educates and engages visitors through exploration of its unique connections to art, design, history and the environment, while celebrating family traditions and community relationships.
